Epicurus on God - Dictionary of Arguments
Adorno XIII 223 Gods/religious belief/antiquity/Epicurus/Nietzsche/Adorno: the gods in Epicurus are presented according to Greek tradition as immortal and blessed, but very anti-Platonic as quite bodily. The concept of living of the deity plays a great role. It has in itself a peculiar melancholy of the alkyonic skies, which later, Nietzsche, who has been very affectionate of Epicurus, has repeatedly emphasized. >God/Aristotle, >God/Plato, >Religious belief/Ancient philosophy, >Religious belief/Epicurus, >Religious belief/Sophists._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
